Riglet Summer Snowboarding Camps for Kids!

Due to the huge success of the Riglet parks in the US and France we have decided to give it a go here in the UK. Tamworth Snowdome will be offering 2 weeks of Riglet camps for 5 -8 years olds in August.

Brand new and exclusive to the SnowDome… this summer, we are proud to present the first ever Burton Riglet snowboard camps, providing a unique opportunity for children aged 5 to 8 years to learn to snowboard.

Complete with a specialised fleet of European Burton Riglet snowboard equipment, designed specifically for young children – youngsters from 5 to 8 years will be able to take their first steps into the world of snowboarding. Complete with a dedicated team of instructors, each camp will run for four days (Monday-Thursday) and will include 2 hours of instruction per day (either 9am-11am or 2pm-4pm).

With the main focus on fun through learning, children will be able to adopt the basics of snowboarding in an exciting and stimulating environment. The first day will involve a fun-park atmosphere focusing on balance and equipment awareness. As the days progress, children will be taken through a route of progression to include, basic turns and edge control… leading to the final end goal of the camp, riding the main slope.

Riglet snowboard camps cost ONLY £79 per child. Camps are available for children aged 5 to 8 years and will have a maximum of 10 children per camp. Camps run Monday – Thursday, at either 9am-11am or 2pm-4pm. Riglet camps are available on the following dates:

  • Monday 8th to Thursday 11th August – 9am-11am OR 2pm-4pm
